This paper deals with the graptolite biostratigraphy and age determination of the Ordovician and Silurian lithological successions of the Baltic, Podlasie and Lublin basins that existed during the early Palaeozoic on the SW slope of the East European Craton. The biostratigraphic research described was conducted on core material coming from old boreholes and cores from several new wells. Graptolite zones were identified and the chronostratigraphic succession was constrained, with the depths to the stratigraphic units, especially those considered prospective for petroleum, being determined in the individual borehole sections. Old local stratigraphic schemes of the Silurian used for many years in the Polish geological literature are correlated with the standard schemes. The most complete succession of graptolite zones, both in the Ordovician and the Silurian, is observed in the Baltic region. The number of stratigraphic gaps increases towards the east and southeast of the regions. The stratigraphic range of the Sasino Shale Formation decreases in this direction; in the Podlasie and Lublin regions, it comprises only the Katian Stage. The stratigraphic range of the Jantar Formation in the western part of the area spans not only the Rhuddanian but also part or the whole of the Aeronian. In the Podlasie and especially the Lublin regions, sedimentation of the Jantar Formation began in the latest Rhuddanian–Aeronian. A large stratigraphic gap, spanning part or the whole of the Llandovery and increasing eastwards, was documented in the Podlasie-Lublin region. The biostratigraphic research allowed a more precise constraint on the temporal and spatial extent of erosion of Pridoli deposits and the beginning of coarse-grained, siliciclastic sedimentation (Kociewie Formation) in the Baltic Basin.
